Vishnupur

Vishnupur
While in West Bengal it’ll be a good idea to forsake Kolkata for a few days and explore places such as Vishnupur. Synonymous with terracotta, metalware& temples, Vishnupur, in the district of Bankura, can come as a revelation. The grandeur of Vishnupur can be ascertained by the presence of many beautiful temples featuring intricate terracotta ornamentation. Built mostly of brick and at times, of laterite, these magnificent temples are the mute spectator to Vishnupur’s glorious past.
Vishnupur’s other claim to fame is its distinct style of music the VishnupurGharana that has earned great respect among the music lovers.
